Our educational project
At Montessori Happy Kids, we place great importance on teaching fundamental knowledge, which forms the basis of our students' education.
Thus, every day, children are encouraged to learn and practice:
reading and writing,
mathematics (decimal system, counting from 1 to 1000, introduction to the four operations, fractions, abstraction),
science (discovery of living things and natural phenomena, development of scientific thinking)
geography (discovering continents and countries)
the arts (music, visual arts, discovering great artists and major artistic movements, etc.)
control of the body and movement (sports and nutrition education)
Our school also follows the objectives of the Romand Study Plan (PER).
The Happy Kids Montessori School offers each student an environment conducive to acquiring skills that will enable them to succeed in school, but also to flourish and integrate socially.
Working together with families, the entire educational community at the school is committed to helping each child develop and grow as a unique individual.
We place particular emphasis on
The development of collaboration and communication, which are primarily social skills.
The development of learning strategies, creative thinking, and reflective thinking, which are more individual and personal in nature.

Children between the ages of 3 and 6 go through the same developmental plan and sensitive periods, which draw them to the areas of language, order, refinement of sensory perception, coordinated movement, and social behavior.
By bringing together children of different ages in the same environment, we enable them to develop peer learning, collaboration, altruism, self-confidence, and trust in others. Younger children learn by observing older children, and older children are valued in their role as role models. This coexistence is a great source of enrichment.

At Happy Kids Montessori School, the environment plays a key role. The materials have been designed and developed to enable children to develop their full intellectual potential by engaging their senses.
Our educators are experts in Montessori materials. They are also committed to making the school a pleasant, stimulating, and welcoming place where every child is happy to learn throughout the day.

In Montessori pedagogy, there is a close link between freedom and discipline. It is through the freedoms granted to children that they develop true self-discipline, which encourages them to behave appropriately, with respect for themselves and others.
At Happy Kids Montessori School, children are free
to move around the classroom,
to choose the activity of their choice
to devote as much time as they wish to each chosen activity
to express their thoughts and feelings
This great freedom is governed by the need to respect
the work and concentration of other children,
all persons residing in the school (students and adults)
the equipment.
-
The teachers at Happy Kids Montessori School are all highly qualified education professionals with AMI (Association Montessori International) certification.
They are guides for children, helping them to develop, and they take on this role with the utmost humility, respect, and love.
They deeply respect each child and their individual personalities.
They are there to help each child gain independence and self-confidence by offering presentations tailored to their needs and rich and stimulating experiments.
"Education is a natural process in children that is not acquired through words but through experience in their environment."
— Maria Montessori
